Morning. There's no time to get the main body of this written so I'll fill you in on yesterday tomorrow - if you see what I mean. Suffice it to say, Sunday was a great day. we were lucky with the weather again until about two o'clock when the heavens opened and I got wet feet! :-)
Today's Advent calendar music . . .
I post this one every year because I really like it. Gaudete, performed by Steeleye Span.

DeleteGaudete sung by Maddie Pryor is one of my all time favourite carols x
